Page 8 SPOKANE Quilt Raffle Benefits Museum Building Fund By: Martha Lou Wheatley-Billeter The Spokane Law Enforcement Museum is looking for a permanent home and you can help! We’re kicking off the museum’s “Building Fund” with a quilt raffle. It’s a gorgeous queen-size quilt that pays tribute to law enforcement and firefighters. It was lovingly made by Kay Sergeant, who works in the Sherriff’s Office, and Naomi Hall. The quilt will be on display in the SCSO Civil Division Office. The raffle tickets are just $1 each and the drawing will be held on November 28th. The money raised by the raffle will go to the Museum Building Fund. As the fund grows, we’ll start looking for a location. The Building Fund will also help pay for remodeling and display cases to showcase our collection of more than 3,000 items. To purchase tickets, please contact Lt. Gary Smith at 477-6631, Kathy Panas in SPD Personnel at 625-4055, or Sue Walker in the Law Enforcement Historical Office at 477-6449. SPOKANE POLICE BLOOMSDAY TEAMS By: Carrie Aiken The Spokane Police Running Team helped sponsor two teams again this year, “Foot Pursuit” and “Spokane Police Running Team.” Injuries sidelined some participants resulting in fielding a smaller second team—small in number but not in speed and spirit! “Foot Pursuit” fielded five runners, all veterans from last year and “Spokane Police Running Team” fielded 3 runners, one returnee and two new runners. “Foot Pursuit” again placed third in their division, but improved overall, moving up from 48th to 31st place overall from last year by scoring more points. Leading this group was Paul Buchmann with a scorching fast time of 50:48 minutes, followed by Jake Jensen 52:41, team captain and “coach” Sam Yamada 53:42, shaving off two minutes from the previous year. Following on his heels was Dusty Patrick with a time of 54:43 and lagging behind the speedsters, was “oldster” Carrie Aiken finishing in 1:04:53. “Spokane Police Running Team” members were no slackers. They came in 17th in their division and 130th overall, (there were 286 Corporate Cup Teams). Paul Gorman led the group with a time of 55:59, followed by David Lund 58:22. Pretty fast for suffering through a bad respiratory infection, and last but not least, Shaney Redmon with a finishing time of 1:08:01.
